Re: InControl Apps a puzzle!

One of the few changes for MY17 was to standardise it.

I didn't think it was worth £350 so didn't order it.

Re: DAB Radio jumps back a few seconds and repeats

When this has happened to me, it has been after the Dab signal has been lost and it has auto switched to the FM signal? When the radio reaquires the DAB signal, it repeats a chunk as the DAB playback is behind the FM playback due to the buffering required by DAB playback. If you display the radio st...

Re: R8 or F-TYPE?

Earlier this summer, we took the F-Type up for a weekend to the Hydro Hotel in Dunblane. When we arrived and went up the drive to the front of the hotel it was obvious that Audi were holding a sales event at the front of the hotel. There were a group of sales people and prospects looking over some R...

Re: F Type low oil pressure switch

As the manual states "If the message ENGINE OIL PRESSURE LOW is displayed, stop the engine as soon as it is safe to do so, and seek qualified assistance. Do not start the engine until the cause has been rectified.", I'd assume that it does. I do agree that the electronic oil check seems un...

so what extras should I go for?

Pano Roof and front sensors are no brainers for me. The only option I didn't spec which I wish I had done was elec tailgate. Sounds like a frippery but it does include the capability to restrict the opening of the tailgate. When I open the manual tailgate in my garage I have to use one hand to hold ...

Software enhancement

According to the work sheet

The service required light fix is FSA K405
The In Control touch update is FSA K438

This is the only info.

Does Topix have any more information on outstanding actions for your VIN?

Software enhancement

I had this done with my first years service a couple of weeks ago. I've not noticed any significant difference, but there again with the current weather I've hardly been out in it since.

V6 Best MPG

V6S - 111 miles - avg speed 54mph - 38.7 mpg.

In mitigation most of the M6 seemed to have a 50 mph speed limit that day.
